Strategy
Mission and Public Benefit

This course provides guidance on developing strategies to achieve a public entity's objectives. It is imperative for procurement leaders to understand how to build a strategy for a procurement department's success within an entity. It can be difficult for Procurement to engage with entity leadership and ensure an understanding of Procurement's role in the entity's strategic plans. For this reason, procurement leaders must understand how to report and "sell" initiatives to leadership. In addition, Social Return on Investment (SROI) has become more important than ever before. Procurement leaders need to know how to calculate SROI and relay the benefit to stakeholders.
